Having played every Harvest Moon title ever ported to the NA region, I can safely say that Harvest Moon : Magical Melody is the best one released to date. It combines a strong legacy of nostalgia from the earlier games (most notably the very first Harvest Moon, released for the SNES) with many favorite characters and features from newer games in the series.
The feature I find the most appealing is the ability to choose between a boy or girl character at the beginning of the game. The music is catchy and engaging. The graphics, a kiddy-sweeet super deformed anime style which is endearing. The minimal vocals of the characters are almost all heartwarming, with very few exceptions.
The only mildly questionable content is a reference to alcohol, which was changed from "Sake" in Japanese to "Soda" in English. Also there is the option of getting married and having a child in the game, a favorite feature of Harvest Moon games, but which some parents might object to.
The weak points of this game aren't many. I find that the story isn't all that wonderful, but it is accomplishment driven and it ties in very well with the activities provided in the game. There is some slowdown when there are too many animals and people loaded in any given area also, which some may find annoying.
With tons of things to do, people to befriend, and up to 21 marriageable spouses, this is a game that is well worth the price tag.
Hard!!!

When I bought the Harvest moon magical melody I was really excited. But after playing it for about 10 min. I got frustraited and traded it in. For this game was a huge let down compared to Wonderful Life harvest moon. For the controls were harder and I kept getting lost.

Magical Melody's graphics are much differnt then Another Wonderful Life's graphics. In Magical Melody the graphics are Chibi like. Aka fat and cute! It's pretty fun though. Play as a boy or girl! Yay! Of course the dog is free. You have to pay for a horse but you can have more than one. ONly one color though. There are a bunch of wild animals (including a white cat). If you see a wild animal, pick it up and it will like you better. Feed it too! If you give a dolphin fish everyday, you will be able to ride it!!!!!
